Another sleepless night

The longer this crap continues the more the stress builds...

neither of us are getting much sleep... hubby, I suspect, got none at all....

spent the entire night coming up with possible (mostly irrational)  ~self-help~ options.

Since the Landlord and Tenant Board takes far too long...

and the police and other community agencies do nothing but ensure that WE don't do anything illegal (or even unpleasant for the little ~princess~) .... but allow HER to do whatever she happens to want to do at our expense....

I can understand the notion, and have, in fact, spent some time on Google looking to see what is likely to happen if we do the same thing CS has done to us...

According to the Landlord and Tenant Board it is against the Act for a tenant to change the locks without the landlord's permission.

If they DO change the locks, they are required to provide a key for that lock "immediately".

We have asked repeatedly requested that they provide a key for the front door lock which they installed without our permission.

Finally - once police became involved - CS did provide a key.

Perhaps it is the key to her heart? Cuz it sure as shit is not the key to the front door.  I checked it when we were there the other day (legally, having given notice, and then having to still wait 45 minutes for the ~princess~ to put on some actual clothes and go away).

Seems to me that turnabout should be fair play.

Why can't I change the locks the next time we're in there to make repairs? And be just every bit as accomodating about giving her a new key as she has been for us?

She has - supposedly - $2400 of our $$ on hand which she is withholding because there are no lights in the kitchen and she and her partner are both, apparently, incapable of changing a light bulb - let her take that money and go stay in a motel... honestly, I couldn't care less about where they go. They need to go.
